Record Numbers Apply For Police Department Positions

Gearing up for the summer season, the Ocean City Police Department has tested its highest-ever number of applicants for seasonal and potentially full-time officer positions.

OCPD Capt. Greg Guiton said at last week’s police commission meeting that the department has tested 646 officer applicants since this past summer, up from 574 last off-season. Even more applicants would’ve been included if not for weather.

“That affected us tremendously this year,” Guiton said. “Since a lot of our applicants are in college, we had several schools that pushed their exam dates back because of weather, so they had exams on our testing dates.”
